I have a small collection of British halfpennies and I'm wondering about year 1961. Is there a halfpenny made in 1961?because I don't see one when I search auctions for my last missing coin.

Not my area of expertise, but it looks to me like none were minted that year:

Maybe someone else here knows why that was so?

There were too many 1/2d's in circulation so the RM rightly jumped a year.
